Schwarber Hits 40, Harper Hits 399 | MLB News

Kyle Schwarber just smashed his 40th home run of the season, becoming the first player this year to hit that mark—and tying Ryan Howard for most 40-homer seasons in Phillies history. With four such seasons already, he’s tied with Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge (though Judge’s injury woes make it unlikely) for the most among active MLB players. Schwarber’s career high of 56 homers last year may be out of reach, but he’s on pace for 48 this season—bringing his career total to 388. Meanwhile, Bryce Harper added his 390th homer, aiming for 395. The duo set the tone early, helping their pitcher deliver a stellar outing as the team cruised to an early lead and reset for their next game.
